Removing (Deleting) an nPartition
You can remove an nPartition by using any one of the following procedures:
• “Deleting an nPartition (nPartition Commands)” (page 176)
• “Deleting an nPartition (Partition Manager)” (page 179)
Deleting an nPartition causes all cells (and any I/O resources connected to the cells) that were
assigned to the nPartition to be unassigned. As a result, all of these cells become available resources
which can be assigned to any nPartition in the server complex.
When removing an active nPartition, you must complete the procedure by performing a shutdown
for reconfig (the HP-UX shutdown -R -H command or Windows shutdown /s command)
as soon as possible after initiating the nPartition removal.
When using the Original nPartition Commands or Partition Manager Version 1.0, you can delete
only the local nPartition and inactive remote nPartitions.
Procedure 6-4 Deleting an nPartition (nPartition Commands)
From the command line, use the parremove command to delete (remove) an nPartition.
